Have hatched a possible theme with Scratchy which I will discuss with Blueshome when he visits tomorrow.

This move back across a mere eighty miles of water feels as though we might have well come from the moon what with on\off sale and much work on the UK house all with limited internet access  :(

However, all that aside I have spoken with the South Lawn Hotel and they have written to me with the rates for the weekend 12-14 April. I think if we ever do move it will have to be next year now or does the "if it ain't broke don't fix it" maxim apply.

Twin\double room B&B inc Dinner (sic) all for ?130\room\day

Single room  B&B inc Dinner (sic) all for ?85\room\day

There are only 4 single room available and 10 rooms are reserved for us at the minute and the hotel has requested that we make our room bookings by 1 Feb 2013.

Tomorrow I'll go ahead with a provisional booking and since we were a bit tight on rooms last year I suggest if you please sign up here and we exceed the 10 rooms I can try and get some more early on. At that point I'll post again and then urge you to book in.

My thanks to Blueshome for his help on this todate, I'm hoping in a week or so I will be back on the net (and weenie) properly.

 :D    :o     :D

Okeh boys and girls, dreadfully sorry for the delay all I can say is never move house, but if you do make sure you have a continuous internet  connection >:(

The hotel have written (spasmodic internet only till this week you see!) and the rates are -

-  Twin\double room to include  dinner, bed and breakfast at ?130 per room per day

-  Ditto single occupancy at ?85 per day - NOTE they can only offer 4 such rooms

I have provisionally booked 10 rooms, more are available so the trick is to get booking pronto, besides which the hotel would like all bookings by 1 Feb 2013.

Ring the hotel direct 01590-643911 to make your booking - maybe put a note on weenie so we know who's mad keen enough to attend.

I will bring my new (hah ha) metal Dobro as I know Phil likes them so much   :P  .. oh and my almost rebuilt eight string banjolin   :-X

Go for it   :)

That's me booked in again. What am I letting myself in for?

By the way, I have drawn up a 20-question quiz for the weekend (not as hard as the one Blueshome did a couple of years ago). The winner might find themselves well on the way to the mighty BRICK. (At least by asking the questions, I can't win it myself - but who knows with the likes of Richard & Blueshome involved?!)

Does anyone have any ideas for workshops? Could be particular songs, or individual artists' styles (nothing too difficult, mind)!!
